Contests & Promotions

Well, I haven’t spent much time on reading the Judgment spoilers this week. I have spent more time working on schoolwork (I have two senior projects which are due very soon) than concentrating on Magic on recent weeks.

I have read the MTGNews.com version of the spoiler. My early take on Judgment is one of the “so called” mechanics called wishes. I expect the WISHES “mechanic” to receive errata in DCI Sanctioned play, and heavily watched in 5-Color. Some of the wishes will have a greater impact in Extended than Standard.

, which is a sorcery that cost 3WW and allows a player to find an artifact or enchantment card from outside the game. The Extended format contains several powerful artifacts and enchantments, ranging from Recurring Nightmare

is the red sorcery that cost 1R. This card may see the bulk of the playing time in the mono-red Standard decks or the U/r Trix deck. There are several good sorcery spells in Standard, especially for red decks. Imagine a Sligh or Ponza player using Burning Wish

. The green wish is a sorcery that allows player to search for a land or creature card outside the game. Though this card can see various uses in both formats (partly due to its cheap casting cost of 1G), it is more likely that the card that the player will search will be a creature. Living Wish

will not work for all kinds of decks, it will be a nice addition to decks that use green.

The card text came from the Judgment spoiler at MTGNews.com (http://forums.mtgnews.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=64810). While what uses of the wishes possess has yet to be seen, both casual and competitive players will get to see the newer forms of Ring of Ma’ruf for the first time next month during the Judgment prerelease weekend.
